Planning ahead, eh, amice?

Admission is "not cheap", but of course I've only ever been there as a participant! (Well, at least since I was a kid.) There is no "site fee" for participating groups, but if you aren't already signed up with a group it's presumably too late. Even as a volunteer with the Fort, I think they want you to have a course or two before turning out.

Looks like the weather won't be quite perfect--plenty wet, yes, but too warm! Afraid I'm not going in any case.

Have fun!

Durasteel, you could wait for Marching Through Time in Glenn Dale, MD, on April 19 and 20. A number of the same groups will be there, and it'll be much closer to you.
